*hugs*

I really hope your confusion ends soon. I can relate about the orientation thing. I think I'm lesbian and demi but I really can't be sure. You should remain friends with your crush. If you really like them, stay close. You never know how things might work out. <3 <3 <3

Since the pandemic started I get really nervous talking to people at school and then I say something awkward and embarass myself. Its been getting worse lately, like I was talking to some kind of popular people and then I had this stupid thought, youre just embarrassing yourself even more, stop annoying them and so I left really awkwardly. It even takes me some time to relax when I'm talking to my bestie. Its just really hard and I hate this.

So theres this new boy in the sixth grade at my school. (Lets just call him 6). And I'm in the seventh grade. And my brother is in the sixth grade. My brother and 6 are the only boys in the class of ten. Coincidently, 6 is temoraly living on my block while his house is being renovated. His family has been living there since September. He has a little sister who were gonna call 3. Me, my brohter, my sister, 3&6 hang out a lot. We are all pretty good friends. Well my brother and 6 are better friends than we are. But then 6 tells me that he has a crush on me. And aflter thinking about it, i decide I have a crush on him. I told him. So then he's starting to put his arm around me, act like he doesn't even want to hang out with my brother, pulling me away from his sister ( i'm pretty close with her, despite the fact that shes nine and I'm thirteen). Then I realize I dont like him like that anymore, but he seems to like me more. My brother once grabbed me and asked what he would give for me. He said anything. Then later that day, he told me my eyes are beautiful. I just couldn't take it. I want to be his friend, not his girlfriend, But now I have a crush on him again and I'm afraid he's gonna ask me to be his girlfreind, but I dont have that big of a crush and i need to talk to a friend, but all my friends moved away so i and whe I'd raather talk to them in person thaen over the phone. 

I just want to be friends with 6.

there. I did it. I confessed what i hav'nt told a soul. I guess I feel a little better.

Oh, gosh, I feel you, this exact situation has happened to me. (Well, not exact, but pretty close).

But here's what you should know:

1. Just because someone likes you and you like them back does NOT mean you should feel obligated to say yes if they ask you out or to be your girlfriend/boyfriend/romantic partner/significant other/whatever.

2. Just because someone likes you and you like them back does NOT mean they get to act like you're their girlfriend/boyfriend/romantic partner/significant other/whatever. Actually, even if you are their (okay I really don't want to type that out again so from now on I'll just be using girlfriend because I think that seems most relevant) girlfriend, you can still say "No, I don't feel comfortable with that."

3. I've been at the "I-can't-take-it-anymore" stage myself, and it is not fun. *hugs* For me, it was that I was ten, and the boy in question was nine, and he was calling me his girlfriend. Heads up everybody, do not do this. Even if you're older and the other person is older, still, everyone needs to be okay with it before you start saying things like that, or doing what Cranberry's experiencing.

4. Don't suddenly and/or randomly yell "I'm NOT your GIRLFRIEND!" (been there, done that... it ended in a lot of tears and I still can't look him in the face without thinking about it. But. I was ten. And he was nine. Ahhh.) I suggest you write yourself a script. Or a note, because telling someone that kind of thing to their face is kind of hard. You could say something like, "Hi, 6. I want you to know that I think you're a really cool person and I want to be friends. I do like you, but I'm not sure I want to/am ready to be in a romantic relationship with anyone yet. I hope this doesn't cause any hard feelings or embarrassment between us, because I really do want to be your friend. I'm always here if you need to talk. Your friend, Cranberry."

Though, that was an example, you don't have to use it, that's just kind of what I wish I'd done. *hugs* I really hope your situation sorts out, it sounds horribly complicated and awkward at the moment.

5. You don't need to feel guilty about telling someone that you're not ready or don't want to have a relationship with them. It's your emotions, your body, your self. You get to decide what happens to them. <3 *hugs again*

OMG YOU TWO I HAVE BEEN IN THE SAME EXACT SPOT

IN 1ST GRADE THERE WAS THIS PERSON WHO KEPT ON CALLING ME HIS GIRLFRIEND

I LITERALLY YELLED IN HIS FACE 'DON'T CALL ME A GIRLFRIEND 'CAUSE IM FRICKING NOT'

THEN IT ENDED IN HIM TRYING TO HOLD MY HAND

*THROWS UP*

LUCKILY IT GOT SORTED OUT

WITH A LOT OF THREATS AND MEAN GLARES

AND A COUPLE OF FRIENDLY PEOPLE WHO HELPED MEEEE

*dies with laughter*

THE HILARIOUS THING IS THAT IN THE BEGINNING WE LIKED EACHOTHER-

BUT THEN YEAH-

ALSO I TAKE THE HARD WAY AKA THE YELLING WAY TO RESOLVE PROBLEMS, ITS QUITE USEFULLL ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU'VE GOT A REP AS THE SCARIEST PERSON...

*cheers* 

But also Cranberry, you should probably write a note...keep it kind and polite and don't do what I did .unless you have a rep like me :D

So... how do I say this.  My brother and I are really close friends with our neighbors, a boy a year younger than me and a girl three years younger than me.  We hang out a lot, but my brother is better friends with the boy than I am.  When his family first moved to our street I had a HUGE crush on this boy, but he had a crush on someone else at the time so I didn't tell him.  We've grown up a bit since then and I eventually told him that I used to have a crush on me, which he was fine with, but I downplayed it by saying stuff like "I was so immature back then," etc.  But the issue is that I'm still attracted to this boy, and I'm pretty sure he only thinks of me as a friend or kind of like a sister.  I mean, he's never said it flat-out, but that's the vibe I get whenever we talk about stuff like crushes.  Help???

You can never be too sure! Honestly, you should ask him- just see how he feels. If he says no/rejects you. 

DO. NOT. PANIC. DO. NOT. MOURN. DO. NOT. SHUT. DOWN. INTO. DEPRESSION.

Just remember that you do have a soulmate out there, somewhere in the world! if he doesn't feel the same way, don't push him to. 

You are loved in your own way. You are unique.

And if he is rude?

Remember that he's a coward from that moment on. He can't see how special, or unique you are. He can't see your strengths. Remember this. 

But if he does say yes that he likes you romantically...

*squeal* ITS. A. SHIP!!!!

*squeals some more*

I... need to let go of a lot of stuff.

 

I feel like I just want to-

1) curl up into a ball and float into space

2) leave and never be seen again by anyone

3) just... turn invisible forever

4) make everyone forget about me for the rest of their lives

5) float up into some heavenly light and disappear and never worry about anything again

6) cry and cry and cry until I have no tears left

7) make all of my unfinished assignments disappear 

8) make my friends stop hating each other

9) stop caring about my appearance

10) quit school and just magically know everything I need to know

11) become famous for something other than being a good speller

12) stop having anxiety/panic attacks at least twice a day

13) disintegrate into the wind

14) peacefully have my memory wiped

15) rewind my entire life and start over as a baby

 

I just... I can't. I have too much unfinished work to enjoy myself, too many things to worry about in

my appearance, too many emails, too many annoyances to keep track of, too many friends that I

feel like I'm growing apart from, too many drafted assignments, too many "are you ok"s and "you

should take a break from school."s from my parents; to whom I am forced to respond that I can't

take a break from school, and that I'm fine, even though I'm not. I'm not fine. I'm not okay.  I...

need... a... break.

And yet I can't take a break. I can't relax. I can't sleep. I can't draw. I can't write. I can't read. I

can't live comfortably until e v e r y t h i n g  is fixed. But I have to fix e v e r y t h i n g by myself. 

 

Only... I don't know how how to fix everything.

 

Seems appropriate that my CAPTCHA would say "aaroo". I do feel like a lone wolf.

*sigh* I'm not good at being anonymous. If you haven't figured it out yet, I'm Firelily.

 

 

Help.
